Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 1 packet black cherry Kool-Aid
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 8 cups cold water

Additional Flavors

  • 16 oz Dr. Pepper
  • 1 can frozen lemonade concentrate (thawed)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Kool-Aid mixture: In a large pitcher or punch bowl (at least three-quarters full), pour in 8 cups of cold water. Add the black cherry Kool-Aid packet and 2 cups of sugar. Stir vigorously until both the Kool-Aid and sugar are completely dissolved into the water, ensuring a smooth and consistent base for your punch.
  2. Add the fizz and citrus: To the Kool-Aid mixture, pour in 16 ounces of Dr. Pepper and the thawed can of frozen lemonade concentrate. Stir the punch thoroughly until all ingredients are completely combined, melding the distinct flavors together.
  3. Chill before serving: Place the punch in the refrigerator for at least one hour or until well chilled. Serve this vibrant Vampire Kiss Drink cold to fully enjoy its refreshing taste and bubbly texture.

Notes

  • For a less sweet option, reduce sugar to 1 cup and adjust to taste.
  • Make sure the lemonade concentrate is fully thawed before mixing for best results.
  • This punch contains caffeine due to Dr. Pepper; consider a caffeine-free soda alternative for children.
  • Serve over ice for extra refreshment on hot days.
  • A great party beverage that can be garnished with fresh cherries or lemon slices for extra flair.
